1. 2.6.25

(samples from a 1973 documentary titled “Manson”. The woman speaking is a former cellmate of a female member of the Manson family)

A person climaxes when they die…
So uh, he had the gun in his hand and he told her, he said: now when you start to reach your climax tell me when…
And as soon as she started reaching her climax she told: OK now… and when she said now, he just took the gun to his head… bang… she sucked the blood from his mouth and that’s warm and she said it’s just too much that I should try it sometime…

2. Industrypeople

With this death kiss
Choose needs over me
Put your lips to my fist
And now this in eclipse

Won’t let this stand in our way

Blind your eyes
Bow your head
A swollen halo
Of your own hell
Face yourself
Chosen one
No matter what you’ve said
Or what you’ve done

We are the Industrypeople
Don’t feel anything
Choose your kin
Rendez vous and let
The choas begin

Blind your eyes
Chosen one
No matter what you’ve said
Or what you’ve done

The black curtains fall
Owe it all to violence
Please
Semi-apologies

Oh let the black curtains fall
Standing tall
Assemble
And tease
Electropolis

3. The hate alphabet

Try imagine how it feels to me
The idea of loyalty
It’s gonna be a lovely day
To get this hatred
Out of the way

A It’s so easy
B It’s so easy
C It’s so easy
H.A.T.E.

I hate you
In a love you way
Though I bet you
Don’t feel that way

I have my own way
With A to Z
My heart’s an ashtray
Tearing a hole inside of me

It’s so easy

H.A.T.E.

I hate you
In a love you way
Though I bet you
Don’t feel that way

Oh I’m falling through the net
You’re trying to block the holes
I’m falling deep this time
Swap places
Change the roles

I am my own worst enemy

4. The death of romance

You bruise so easily in love
Our heart’s racing again
Once the bloom leaves the rose
All that’s left is regret and sorrow

Don’t be a stranger
Misanthrope
Don’t take my hand
If you know you’ll never love again

It’s the death of romance
The death of romance

The rope’s too tight around my hands
I don’t want to understand
Obscured by light
A stain inside
Even your tattooed cross
Is too heavy to bear

Angels sing that closing hymn to me
Can’t you hear
Those angels sing the closing hymn to me

It’s the death of you and me
It’s not the end you see
Well patience got to pay
The price tonight

5. The pygmalion effect

Motherfuckers and gentlemen
One in a million times
You get closer to something
Closer to something
You get closer
Then it slips away, yeah

Fading three dimensional ways
While flies buzzing around your head
I see you ghost-pale
Sucking up
To the black laced mirrors
Much like a sapphire

Wind-up angels
Wind-up gods
Wind-up big shots
And wind-up dolls
Aren’t we all the same
On borrowed time here

The Grand prix of self destruction
Remember who you are
It’s the effect you have on me
Sinistar

You’re in a place you cannot escape
Oh well
It’s your ninth circle of hell
Torn up inside
All torn up inside
It’s your shadow and a great big L

6. Murder sound

Look at you now
In a bleak room
All dead inside

You can’t feel your own torture
The wounds you hide

And when will you learn that
My heart can’t take this
And when will you know that
My heart can’t take this

You’re so pretty when you kill me
Valentine
The poison clears my mind
Oh you kill me when you say it
Out loud
That you want me

Resent yourself
Oh so dolled up
God, you’re paranoid

Lament the passion
Lament the boy
You’re here to destroy

All dead inside

7. Revengefuck

What you feel when the violence burns
The feathers in black
You are holding it back

What you feel is a violet ray
Before you undress
Let me confess

Everyone I have had is in you
And when I fuck you
I fuck them all

Revengefuck
Doesn’t it feel good
To level
The pain inside of you
Bleeds away
Thrust by thrust

And now you got the taste for it

This temptation swallows you up
Spiralling you down to a different place

Revengefuck
Doesn’t it feel good
To level
The pain inside of you
Bleeds away
Thrust by thrust by thrust

What you feel when the violence burns
The feathers in black
You are holding it back

Would the ghost grace a devil inside
With a kiss
You couldn’t resist

8. Virgin ring

Want it
More than you want it
Want it
More than it hurts in here

I’m not afraid
No
I’m not afraid anymore

The virgin ring
The “I want” syndrom
The modded lies
The future fear
Will you suffer when you’re there

You know it hurts
You know it
Hurts in here

I’m not afraid
No
I’m not afraid anymore
I’m not afraid
This time
I’ll toe the line

This kingdom
You were given
A number
My silence holds thunder

Can’t hold it much longer
I’m breathing the fire
You are under

9. The plinth

You say it’s the isolation
Wrench yourself apart this time
I will draw the line for you

You say it’s your fixation
You say it’s the only way
Lay you down on a plinth
Now the sky is taking a black tint

I cut you lose
I’m coming back
And I run away
You tell yourself
It’s not the end
I fuck around
Let met tell you when it’s over

Let’s say it’s the isolation
That will break the fall for you

It’s the sound of you
Closing out the world again
Lay you down on the plinth
Closing out the world again

10. Mint

I let you breathe in this emptiness
Seeing me as I am
You know the answer long before it’s given
You are the only one
Who can erase this

The sun the sea the sky
The loneliness the why
The fear of losing everything in a goodbye
The colours in the air
The hollowness a tear
The depths of your mistakes are drawing near

Now the air gets thin
The walls are closing in
I didn’t realise just how alone I am until now
So I’m staring at you
Across the room
But hey
It’s not like it’s the first time
The ground is falling away

Is there any way to make this hold
Through the wind and through the cold
Then show me
Show me

Is there a line you are willing to cross
Through the rain and through this loss
The show me
Show me

You are the only one
Who can erase this

11. V

I don’t want to be blind
I don’t want to be tied up in this pain
It’s a guilt thing
It’s a blood drive
Our final kiss of this world
Can’t rescue

Help me God I can’t control myself

I don’t want to be blind
Don’t want to be vain
I don’t want to be tied up in this pain
I don’t want to be vile
Don’t want to omit
I don’t want you to treat me like shit

Help me God I can’t control myself

Taking the one out of one love
How come
It feels so numb
Taking the two out of together
Put the N back in ever

I don’t want to believe
I don’t want to forget what I feel

Taking the one out of one love
How come
It feels so wrong
Taking the two out of together
Put the N back in ever

It’s a guilt thing
It’s a blood drive
It’s our final kiss
Of this world

Taking the third out of your act
How come I don’t react
Taking the four out of forever
Put the N back in ever
